you have some great material, and the ability to bring the best out of it ... deserves greater recognition

Singer/songwriter David Husted's much anticipated 2nd solo CD, "In the Dust of this Planet", offers a compelling collection of musical images and a rich, deep listening experience. Intricately produced, modern rock,  intertwined with powerful lyrics.

This album contains songs with listenable, smart and twisting lyrics. His sound proves time and time again to be immediate, innovative and involved.  He adds all the right ingredients.  His latest album is no exception.  

"Building up more neural binds, rushing forward losing time
Upon the tendrils of my sparring fickle mind
May I glow inside your happiness"......

" Our Judgement lines up on the wrong streets
Dodging flying rocks and other credibilities
Blind poverty pilfering treats
Ranks of talking heads salivate on the fiery scene".......

"If you feel that close in cloy give me a shout
How bout that high bye loud as you run out?
can you see across the vast?
muddy puddle pocketful of doubt?"......

Modern Times

Verse 1

Am I playing the wrong game —- where losing’s a crime
Time’s just not the same—-and there’s no one here to blame
In these modern times——where machines reigns supreme
breaking all the chains——-to fulfill my dreams
————And that’s a solid —because—- yeah—— I’m back————-
Metaphors and rhymes——-my weapons on this track
Modulating -from the underground ——one culture one voice
And we’re —-wired in like teeth—-like we—-ever—-had a choice

Chorus

Modern times---- a difficult maze
Where screens captivate —— the Information Age
And—-We're all connected——yet we’re—also——-alone
Lost in a sea of pixels----hearts ———-—cold as stone
Modern times————Modern times ——-Modern times

Verse 2

Smartphones--at our side—-our constant companions
That double-edged sword—-has become ——-part of the norm
buzzing Notifications——like a relentless swarm
Distracting —us ——-from moments —-another task ——to perform
Just another monster ———taking physical form

**Chorus**

Bridge

Artificial intelligence--- a marvel and a threat
Replacing human minds--- leaving us —-deep in debt
Algorithms —-determine our fate—without regret—-
Like marionettes ———or puppets on a strings
Manipulating our thoughts——damn—we are feeding these things

Verse 3

Social media——-a stage ——for the soul to bare
Beneath the surface——lies ——and deceptions —-are clear
We curate our lives——-like a perfect facade
our true selves———pushed aside ——in total disregard

**Chorus**

Outro

In this digital age---we must find our way
Embracing the power——with a huge price to pay
There’s a balance for the screens —-in real life
With the key to our future——a new vision insight

The Puppet Master

The father of lies
Is no one’s friend
But the media tells you
he’s not so bad

Looks like an angel
If it suits his design
Looks good on paper?
Sign the dotted line

[chorus]
Puppet master
Pulls the strings
Leads you on
Into the flames
Lake of fire
His domain

New world order
Deception grows
Follow the world
And you sell your soul

Ascend upside down
Headfirst into the ground
Death and darkness
Is all to be found!

Don’t follow the crowd
Snake charmers and liars
False prophets abound
Flames rising higher

Pied pipers mislead
People to the void
The liars and thieves
They’ve made their choice

Without Jesus as lord,
Thrown into the fire
Bound in evil accord,
Fall into the pyre

Where the worm does not die
An unquenchable fire
great chasm divides
Kingdom from hellfire

THE BOY - TILL IT HURTS
This is My New Single❣️
OUT On Everywhere NOW✨
Tap Link in Bio and Enjoy🎧
Please follow me on Instagram and Spotify!
Thank you! 

This is a song about unhappy lovers. 106BPM. Indie Rock / Alternative Rock / Post Rock. Sad, Romantic and Moody. I was most inspired by Ride and Taylor Swift. Please enjoy the overflowing emotional melodies. I will be very happy if this song touches your soul. I want you to listen to this song when you are alone at night. If you do that, I think that you can enter the world of this song. I really think that love is painful!

TILL IT HURTS

Cast of Characters:
J.J. Terrell– @j-j-terrell –electric piano, synth and original seed 
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen–guitar, mix, and production
K2 and the Three [and the Four]-- @k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums
Llanpsych– @llanpsych –Tez– Guitar
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –five-string fretless bass guitar
The Eclectic Collective – composition

 This song began with JJ, as many of our songs do, who composed the outline on the keys, drums, and bass. He then let everyone else in on it immediately. Ken was first up to bat by laying his always cunning drums in there. After he had a beat to work with, Josh used his tree trunk of a five-string fretless bass to complete the rhythm section. Soon after, Tez and Stephen both laid their magical guitars in there. Once we had it all in the can, Stephen used his powers of production to give us a great mix.
  This one came together relatively quickly, which is a good sign that we're all enthusiastic about what we're creating. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.

Mellow Travels (The Eclectic Collective)

The hole that was loved!!
Gone but not forgotten....for many Sheffielders this 'near-brutalist' structure (see picture) remains a fondly-missed refuge and meeting place. Hole int' Road (to use the proper vernacular) was built in 1967 but filled in in 1994 to make way for the new tram system. Officially called Castle Square Roundabout it occupied the site of markets going back to 1296. The site is now a tram stop, with just distant memories of the subterranean meeting place with its benches, shops and even the famous fish tank. Shame indeed!

Hole in the Road Blues

Wrote this 3 years ago. It needed some serious revision. I see how much my mixing and mastering has improved from the previous version Die Alive.

You Die Alive

YOU DIE ALIVE

Original composition, guitars and el.piano by Neno J.

New Horizons

The promise of better days.

This one is best listened to with headphones on and volume CRANKED UP!. iPhone or computer speakers will not do it justice ; ). It's got powerful chorus synth panning stereo effects complimented with electric guitar and big drums.

This song is called “The Un-Describable You”

“Along magic streets. Words I wish I said. Receding shadows; Those beautiful hours with you; With you; With You”.

Thank You for listening.

The Undescribable You

The Lyrics speak for themselves.........

DON QUIXOTE 

I’m a welter weight refusing to go down 
Aversions left hook trying to knock me out 
mind’s a pummeled , tunneled 
marsh-mellow with no clues 

Dave’s a nomad, oh Hell Yes 
Well, maybe, I don’t know, but perhaps 
Hot and brooding rascal 
never ever willing to be found 

If you feel that close in cloy give me a shout 
How bout that high bye loud as you run out? 
can you see across the vast? 
muddy puddle pocketful of doubt 

chorus 
D B7 Em7 C7 
Aftershock of Happiness 
Groundless ground of Don Quixote 

Maybe after the earth quakes 
He’ll pick up your pieces 
Maybe his smile is for you 

Got to love that crazy 
Reveling pilgrim 
Groundless ground of Don Quixote 

V2 
Don’t wanna be another corporate ass 
with a smoked filled mouth of cinderblock and ash 
Never truly hated, but barely tolerated 
SuperMan 

I like a mustard, hot sauce coleslaw sandwich 
Writing poems in pajamas about life’s twisted origami 
and maybe next life while I’m curled up in her belly 
I’ll choose to be a beach bum guru rockabilly 

or perhaps I’ll be a Martian MacGyver 
or Vulnerable Lama, staring at the Kama 
dashed across the rocks 
Insignificant as God

la mancha

Don Quixote

A deep bow of respect to that universal theme called “Love”.

the village

You Wear Everything Well

Inside my house of mirrors 
I come into view when I’m looking at you 
I’m not so far gone I can’t remember what’s true 

Spinning dervish in the heat, smile the smile of underneath 
Conversing with your mystery when no one else is listening 
Stuck so deep this sweet love weeps 

Yet in-between something new is whispering 
There’s nothing left that I can bring 

Are you listening? Yes, I’m listening 
Stuck on a Velcro wall of memories 
You stripped me down, 

And took away my in-completes 
Then curled around me tenderly 

You’re worth everything, you’re worth everything 
And if I’m crazy; SO BE IT! 
‘Cause you turned to me, yes, you turned to me 

************************************************* 

Through long forgets and tired fights 
Solace flashes across the sky 

This world’s silent naked brilliance, her legs, her hips, her valleys 
More than a painted picture in a gallery 
That place where waves kiss, against my worthiness 

Where all of my anxieties swarm 
And fear insists on switching forms 

Building up more neural binds, rushing forward losing time 
Upon the tendrils of my sparring fickle mind 
May I glow inside your happiness 

Night gown slipping to the ground 
I feel compassion’s tender growl 

Keeping promises, entering mysteries 
How can love return when she never left? 
Sleeping softly in this bed

the bedroom

Sleeping Softly In This Bed

Deep bow of gratitude to you for giving my music a listen, for liking, for commenting and/or for sharing when any given song resonates with you.  You help create a community that lifts music out of the nooks and crannies and allows it to be heard a little bit more than it otherwise might have been.  Thank You sincerely for that. YOU ROCK!

I love to create music.  It is really that simple.
